thin windowsconstant commotion
The room was quite small. It felt cramped even for a single person. also, the noise from the street was constant throughout the night. Thin windows offered very little sound insulation. i found it hard to get a decent sleep due to the constant commotion. breakfast lacked variety and the quality was not great. I ended up eating elsewhere most mornings.
